| Reverse description | Heracles depicted standing to the left, shown in the act of seizing the Ceryneian Hind by its antlers, a reference to the third Labour of the hero. The muscular figure of Heracles dominates the field, rendered in the conventional provincial iconographic tradition. The multi-line Greek magistrate legend occupies the field and periphery, identifying the local archon responsible for the issue. Heavy encrustation and flan breaks partially obscure the design elements. |
